I would have to say the 67. I just love the front and the back of it. The lines are so sleek and the car has a muscular stance. It is funny how tastes change over the years. When I first got into GTO's I would not look at anything else but a 65 which was my favorite then. I actually did not even like the 66-67, I thought it looked too big. Now that I have a 67, it just seems so much nicer. Even my wife and neighbors say they like the 67 better than my 65. They said the 67 looks so much more muscular and curvy.
In my opinion, the only reason why the 66 was the best selling year for the GTO was because it did not have the stiff competition which became available in 67. The Camaro and Mustang/fastbacks became a killer in the sales department in 67 which took away a lot of the 67 GTO's glory. The 66 and down Mustang was considered a girls car back then where I came from in the Bronx anyway.. To end, I like all the GTO's, they are each unique in there own way, even the 04 to 06 which I would give the best bang for the buck award to as well as being a great sleeper. Hey at least they were not made in Japan right..
